Hello, let me tell you about the Boxing Day Tsunami.
It happened on the 26th December 2004 and it hit the west coast of Sumatra.
The tsunami was caused by a magnitude 9.3 earthquake that occurred on the sea floor off the western coast.
A 120km section of the sea floor was where it ruptured! This caused a massive area of the sea floor to raise.
This effected lots of things to happen, for example people were being swept away in the water and the other things that'd already been taken up - because of this and homes being destroyed nearly a quarter of a million people died from it.
What do you think about this? Do you think it could happen again? Could it possibly effect you this time?
I hope you have enjoyed hearing about this hazard. Bye!!
